Today was the day. Finally. I've been begging my husband to do it for months and now it's a done deed. Our tom turkey is no longer the terror of the barnyard. He is now cooling his jets in the outside fridge. I am soooo glad. I hated that bird 
.
He was a big feathery pain. But today he became a fabulous homesteading/homeschooling family opportunity.

My family grew a turkey he WAS suppose to be food but i keep him as a pet he was over 60 pounds!!
ReplyDeleteI didnt want to eat him i fell in love with him because we had since he was a baby turkey.
Well at least he fulfilled his purpose in life (and death)! I loved the line about Thanksgiving goodness. LOL!

He looks like he will make a wonderful meal. Thanksgiving or not.
ReplyDeleteDo you have other turkeys and are they a pain as well? I've thought about getting some but often here that they are the brats in the barn.
